When you use a PRF File to Open Outlook you will always receive a Window
stating:

"Outlook is about to import information into your E-mail Accounts. This can
potentially modify or replace your existing E-mail Account settings. Would
you like to import the account setings? (Outlook will be opened after you
click Yes or No.)"

Is there anyway to NOT have this Window show up and just exicute the "YES"
and go straight into Outlook???

Thanks for your help in advance...

The excellent white paper "Configuring Outlook Profiles by Using a PRF File" at http://office.microsoft.com/search/redir.aspx?assetid=HA011403051033&QueryID=pHm
7c_60I&respos=3 explains how to use the ImportPRF registry value to force Outlook to process a prf file at startup.
